"elliot, how do you get so much done" i listen to synthetic god by andreas waldetoft on repeat for 14 hrs straight and feel the synthetic god being built more and more every day. i feel the singularity and am happy to experience with other humans. what i DO NOT feel is this fear of it taking over and doing bad things. i think its incredibly interesting to watch neural nets evolve relative to the hparams and recipes we throw at them, even when it results in some form of damage. its just error propagation backward relative to which numbers are responsible for being off the expected answer. deep learning is so fucking cool can you believe it! being able to build things that make be excited, and also push the frontier a bit (even if its more focused on teaching others) brings me immense joy. this doesnt feel like work, especically when i listen to this song (i do 0.8x, 1.25x, 1.6x on hall or heavy bass depending on mood). if you see my timelapses, this is what im listening to ~95% of the time gotta give credit where its due. thank you @sulaimanghori for recommending this a year ago <3. it has changed my life
